Become a Certified Pilot!

Do you yearn for the freedom of soaring with the birds?
Become a certified paragliding pilot!

Our USHGA Certified Instructors are dedicated to helping you become a safe and capable pilot. Our private certification program utilizes both tandem flying and classroom training to engrain the skills necessary to pilot your own glider and fly solo.

Introductory Course
This is a great way to see if paragliding is everything you hoped, without a large investment!

Our one day introductory course will teach you the basic skills necessary to begin your adventure in paragliding. We start the day with ground handling the paraglider in order to familiarize you with the tendencies and handling characteristics of the wing. Then we move into the classroom, teaching you about weather, safety, aerodynamics, and the basic principles of flight. Finally, we conclude our day with short, solo flights from one of our two training sites.

Introductory Course cost is $250, and includes the use of equipment.

Preparatory Course
Our two day Preparatory Course picks up where the Introductory Course finishes. We continue your training with more ground handling, classroom training and several more solo flights. You will finish this course with your Beginner (P1) Paragliding Certification, well on your way to becoming a self-sufficient pilot!

Preparatory Course cost is $385, and includes the use of equipment. If you decide to continue your education to receive your Novice (P2) Certification, part of the Introductory Course fee will be applied toward your future expenses.

Novice-P2 Certification Course
Where our Introductory and Preparatory Courses are designed to teach you the basic operational skills of paragliding, our P2 Course is designed to train you to develop your own judgment, and how to fly safely within your limits.

As a P2, you are becoming a competent, smart, skilled and safe solo pilot. Your flights will become longer, from higher and more challenging launch sites, and you may begin to fly with other advanced pilots, without the direct supervision of your instructor. You are achieving your goal of becoming a paraglider pilot!

P2 Certification Course cost is $1,450.

Intermediate-P3 Certification Course
Adventure Paragliding also offers a P3 course which includes several weekends of flying several P3 sites and working on more advanced techniques, such as thermal flying and cross country flying skills. Click here for details!
